What is strawberry Finch?
Strawberry Finches come from Pakistan, Philippines and India and include Red Avadavat and Green Avadavat. These birds are very small and usually grow only to a few centimeters (not more than 3 or 4 cm). They usually like to live in large groups of their own species, but also enjoy companies of other small birds when they are held as pets.

Female red birds Avadavat are brown with white spots along the wings - do not change the color when they are ready to reproduce. Man and female Pinches become a similar color when the season is over, with brown and yellow color and dark wings.

These finches usually live for several years, but are rarer than red avadavat. Their smaller Numbers are caused by frequent destruction of the natural habitat of this bird.
